Hi,

I'm trying to plan a family vacation to China for 6 days 5 nights from July 17 to 23. There will be about 10-15 of us mostly adults. My parents can't walk too much. We prefer a private tour. We don't necessary have to see everything on this trip. I would like to make it a rest and relax trip rather than a tiring trip filled with tight schedules. Guilin might be a good option.

Do you have any recommendations??

Thanks,

Phoebe
